Interesting to see that Gartner slots "The Internet of Things" (which uses RFID as one of its base technologies) as one of their 12 strategic technologies for 2012.

Big Push on our On-Line Shop

We've been working for some time on an exciting revamp for our on-line shop. There's going to be a big push on moving products over so we can start by the end of January. The aim is to make it easier for folk to find the things they need, so watch this space!

December Efforts

Hectic run up to Christmas with plenty going on. We're busy revamping the interface to our on-line shop and that's taking up a chunk of my time at the moment. We're aiming to have it on line early in the New Year and it should make it even easier for our customers - at least that's the aim - but, then, when did you ever hear a company claim it was making things more difficult????
